9 Nuestro Señor Jesucristo, Rey del Universo 27 de noviembre de 2016 Page 9 Lecturas y Noticias TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE El calendario cristiano comienza con el tiempo de Adviento durante el mes de diciembre. Adviento! Interesante palabra. Viene del latín y quiere decir Allí viene o Ya está llegando. Pero, de quién hablamos cuando proclamamos Adviento? Del Rey de gloria?, el Príncipe de la paz?, el Hijo de Dios Altísimo?, el salvador de Israel? Sí, sí, sí y sí, pero más todavía del Hijo del Hombre, del niñito de María, el niño Jesús de Nazaret. Allí viene y ya está llegando. Tenemos que estar preparados. Pero, cómo prepararnos para la llegada de un rey que es pobre?, de un príncipe que nació entre una mula y un buey?, de un niñito que ya es todo un hombre y además es Dios?, de un pobre bebito que también es juez y señor? He allí el dilema del Adviento cristiano. Es un llamado a vivir la paradoja (contradicción) de un tiempo que está a medias, donde el Reino de los Cielos ya está pero todavía no completamente, pues existe pero no en su plenitud. Es un llamado a buscar en el templo, en el mall, en el barrio, en el hogar, en el trabajo y en el propio corazón, para ver si allí viene el dueño de la casa. Es un llamado a estar atentos y vigilantes porque no sabemos ni cuándo ni como Jesús regresará por nosotros. Pero cuando regrese nos pedirá cuentas y nos abrazará a la misma vez. Porque viene como juez y hermano nuestro, como rey y compañero; como Dios y ser humano. Así es como los cristianos iniciamos el año litúrgico, y a la misma vez, terminamos el año seglar con la paradoja de nuestra fe. Quinceañeras Vamos a empezar a tener Quinceañeras de nuevo en nuestra parroquia, pero sólo durante la misa de 1:30 los domingos. Sólo sería la bendición durante la misa con los padres y padrinos. Si desea programar una Quinceañera póngase en contacto con Gina al (949) o por correo electrónico a gina@stcathchurch.org. ESTAR PREPARADO Debes estar preparado. Es así de simple. Al comenzar este tiempo de Adviento, el Señor Jesús nos llama a estar preparados para su venida. En esta época del año, gran parte de nuestra atención se centra en estar preparados para los detalles que acompañan las fiestas. Compramos regalos; decoramos nuestro hogar por fuera y por dentro; preparamos comidas especiales para esta época; escribimos y enviamos tarjetas de Navidad; asistimos a conciertos navideños; nos preparamos para recibir a los familiares y amigos en nuestro hogar o para visitarlos en sus hogares. No podemos ignorar los detalles que forman parte de este tiempo. Quizás este Adviento sea un tiempo para prestar atención a todos esos detalles con un enfoque diferente. Mientras nos preparamos para celebrar la fiesta de Navidad, qué tal si reconocemos plenamente la presencia del Señor mientras realizamos estas tareas? El Señor muchas veces viene a nosotros de formas maravillosamente sorprendentes. Estemos preparados.
